A method for estimating the remaining life of a solid state drive (SSD) device includes generating a sensing value by periodically measuring an environmental variable, generating a load value associated with the SSD device based on the sensing value and a distance between the sensor and the SSD device, calculating stress applied to the SSD device based on the load value, calculating damage of the SSD device based on a stress-life curve and the stress, and determining the remaining life of the SSD device based on a difference between a threshold value and the damage. The stress-life curve may represent a relationship between the stress and life of the SSD device.
